We’re Sorry, Yara Flinn!

yara.jpgObviously, we're right 99% of the time, but when we're wrong, we're man/woman enough to admit it. And so it's with the utmost sincerity that we extend our apologies to Yara Flinn, a Tom Sachs party attendee who wasn't pleased with the way we captioned her photograph.

i like how when you don't know how to describe something fashionable you
call it "retarded"
xo,
yara flinn (thanks for getting it right, intern)
p.s. how did you miss tom sachs obviously checking out my ass?
Intern Heather, shame on you. We trusted you to cover this event, and you failed on several important fronts. True, you did manage to get an ID for this not-famous lady, and you also spelled her hippie name right. But the caption, let's face it, could use some work. "Yara Flinn's retarded patent gloves do nothing for Tom Sachs" is a good jumping-off point, sure. But how about something more along the lines of "Yara Flinn's fingerless patent leather gloves doubtless cost enough money to feed an African family for a month, but they're still ugly and pointless, kind of like her entire being. Also, her dress makes her ass look pregs, which Tom Sachs is clearly into. Maybe he has some kind of preggy ass fetish."

Shape up, Intern Heather. We mean it.
